Isabella Plantation



I cycle through Richmond Park most weekdays at around 7.30 am on my way into work at Hammersmith. I much enjoy the route, but rarely appreciate one of the gems which I pass so often - Isabella Plantation. During the Summer Holidays I took time out to visit this beauty spot.

How often do we pass beauty each day - and ignore it? It reminds me of words from a Christmas Carol:

O hush the noise, ye men of strife,
And hear the angels sing!

It Came upon the Midnight Clear-surely a hymn rather than a carol. One of my favs. Lovely words sung to one of Sullivan's stronger tunes.
